...blame it on the Governor, not the city or the school board!

Of course, the city does have a new detention center.

And that is no joke.

From a case worker:

The leadership of Baltimore and its school system should be proud.

Wow. That’s really sorry. If I was a parent I’d be royally hated. Whose in charge of the budget boondoggle there, anyhow? Heads oughta roll over that...


Well, the Republican governor is getting all the blame, so he must be in charge of Baltimore's
budget. Isn't that the way it's done? Wasn't Michigan's governor the one responsible for Flint's
lead problem?

That is the standard practice for these democrat run **** holes. They
just start running up the chain of command until they can find a
republican to blame, then it is all his fault.
Flint is a great example. Once the dust settled and the hysteria died
down, the real problem was the Flint city water managers simply failed
to put the anticorrosive chemicals in that the Detroit system was
using for essentially the same water.

I suppose some of the blame for the collapse of the cities goes to
LBJs great society. He piled up all of the welfare money in big
cities, drawing the largely unemployables into the cities. The
employed moved out and left a hollowed out shell without a tax base to
support themselves.
Excessive taxation drove out what little low skilled (manufacturing)
employment opportunity was left in those places.
Harry is the first one to say, without a college degree, employment in
the city is hard to find these days.
